You need to start building on the flat land, where they'll periodically drop off boats with Preachers and other Invisible units in. Scatter some Guard Towers quickly and get your own Preachers in them.
When you have enough Preachers get some FireWarriors and begin expanding on the upper grounds. Landbridge via a Guard Tower across to the Stonehead to get Volcano. Landbridge further until you come across the smaller outpost base, take it out by Sniping from above to waste their time and go in with Lightning for their Guard Towers. Get a few Towers and hold the area with FireWarriors once the buildings are dismantled if you wish. It will leave you one less thing to worry about. There's a better place to attack from than I did, the height they have at the back was the major annoyance for me. Instead of ploughing through the front after taking out the Towers, go through the back by getting forces on a boat and Landbridging across to their peak. You can catch the Shaman and FireWarriors in the Tower and then Volcano the lowlands. This should leave an easy mop up job, rather than the uphill climb I left myself which was added to further by the Shaman falling off the cliff and getting stuck.
